- Food savers that look like your food! From tomatoes to lemon. Stick your half-used fruits and veggies in containers that look like themselves.
Warning: Don’t put olives in the grape container!
2. A magnetic whiteboard on your fridge. Write grocery lists as you run out of stuff; take a photograph of the whiteboard with your mobile phone and take it with you to the grocery store.
Warning: Don’t put marijuana on the list of groceries.
3. A magnetic container to hold the whiteboard markers, so that you don’t have to go hunting for one every time. You can write messages to your loved ones, wishing them a very merry un-birthday or something.
Warning: don’t use the whiteboard marker to address your letters. And don’t sharpen them – that’s for your mates in lockup.
4. Anti-bacterial bin bags. Use them to line the crisper drawer. Next time you have juice from that six-week-old steak you forgot to cook, or juice from those tomatoes all over the place, just take out the bin bag and chuck it. Less cleaning time.
Warning: don’t chuck any cutlery away that may have snuck in there.
5. A magnetic conversion table. Don’t know your ounces from your grams, or your teaspoons from your tablespoons? Here’s the handy conversion table, on your fridge when you need it – instead of having to haul out that greasy cookbook.
Disclaimer: these conversion tables do not convert pdf to jpeg.
6. Stackable shelving. Tired of bottles that won’t fit into the fridge? Get some storage, so that your wine bottles won’t roll around.
Warning: Have a couple of veggies in your fridge, so that it doesn’t seem like your eating habits consist of pork pies and Pinotage.
7. Magnetic flags from overseas. Some people collect spoons, some collect stamps – you collect magnetic flags.
Warning: If you have an Israeli flag, keep it far away from the Palestinian flag.
8. Drawer Organiser. Keep your meat away from your chocolate mousse.
Warning dummkopf: Don’t keep your eggs in the fridge.
9. Storage container with Space for 9 cans or for more Veg and Fruit.
Warning dummkopf #2: Don’t keep your oil cans in the fridge.
10. A Lazy Susan Turntable for Jars and Cans and Stuff. Tired of trying to see what’s in the back of the fridge? Get one of these bad boys and you can turn to your hearts delight.
Warning: Don’t turn the tables too hard or your jar of pickles might go for a spin right out of there.
